Valentine's Day

Do cherubs creep anybody else out? I mean, there's only two possibilities - they're either dead babies, or they're inhuman creatures that assumed the form of human babies to further some unknowable plan. Either way, they're not something I want associated with romance.

(Cupid's also creepy, but, hey  - Greek mythology; you expect a fair amount of creepyness in its icons of romantic love. Naked child with a bow and arrow is downright normal compared to most of the stuff associated with Aphrodite.)
